How do I get a gf
Reposting
Are there any decent GPUs for mid-range gaming (autism simulators like Minecraft, Terraria, and last-gen games like F:NV) at around the $200-$250 price range? I was really hoping the 480 would be my savior, but unless Sapphire or someone else manages to fix them they seem very iffy.
>>55450797
Used 970
I dual boot Windows and Debian. Can I mount my Debian OS in a VM in windows? I want to work with both OS at the same time.
Should I get a Lenovo Flex 4 or a T460? This is going to be for notes, programming, and bringing home on weekends to watch chinese cartoons in bed. I already have a main computer. First thing I'm doing out of the box is installing Debian so I guess that's something to consider.

Work out. Get good lats, traps delts.
Go out with friends
Have fun
Girls will notice you
They will come over
Greet them, invite them to join your group
Continue having fun
Girls will pair up with guys
Continue having fun, concentrating on your girl
There, that should get you started.

Hey guys,
I have a question about system requirements.
I've really enjoyed the Fallout series so far and I was hoping to play Fallout 4, but I don't have a lot of money on hand at the moment.
What are the lowest grade components you've used or know you can use to play Fallout 4?
I'm upgrading my computer and I'm trying to decide if I should go with an I5 or an I7 processor?
I have one of the first gen i7 processors, and it's still pretty great, but my motherboard is showing its age.
Is the extra cash worth it for the newer i7's?
>>55450874
Can't afford a gym but already pretty muscular, body weight exercises don't really do much.
I have had gfs before but none were on my level intellectually. I want someone I can actually talk to

I used a radeon 7870 and an i7 4790k on ultra with only minor stuttering from the GPU in specific moments
Lately certain drives are having abyssmal
transfer rates(2MB/s).And indexing the drive, via file picker or file manager, often times out, or hangs and forcing the program is the only option.
There are no messages in any logs, smart data is not showing anything wrong.
>>55450890
>showing its age
How exactly?
You want something new to play with, and are trying to justify it.
Motherboards dont "show age"
>i7
no
>>55450962
check SATA cable
>>55450986
All cables are connected and locked, so are they power cables.
>>55450980
sata 2 ports, usb 2.0, DDR3 RAM
>>55451010
How is this "showing age"?
>ddr3
You dont need ddr4.
>ddr3
I've had 16gb ddr3-1300mhz ram since 2010, it isnt "showing age". There is no problem
Unless you're needing a rendering/capture system, you dont need anything, read ddr4
>sata2
So im assuming you didnt build it over the course of the last 6 years part by part, and all the devices are sata 2, given that was the current technology when you build it.
>everything is working just fine with no errors.
>>55451000
Might have a SATA controller going bad.

wat do?
>>55451095
i5 750 is around an 860k. If you can OC the 750 you should be good.

No interesting answer yet.
I have an item up on ebay for 485, and I have an offer on 400 I'd like to take.
The thing is, the guys account was made yesterday, and while the offer does show a zip code and state, i don't know if I should trust that.
There is one feedback comment on his profile saying good buyer and fast payment etc, but that is also from yesterday.
It is possible that he may very well have just made his ebay account and is beginning to buy things, but I'm unsure.
Should I do this /g/uys? I want my fucking 400 dollars, but I don't want to get my pickle tickled.
Can you even get scammed on the seller side at all though, isn't paypal instant to begin with?
>>55451456
ebay completely scams the seller. They always side with the buyer.
>>55451496
Just searched and I've found a million forum posts about ebay siding with buyers only, thanks anon.
What do I do now?
I want to get rid of this thing, its a laptop, but the next offer is 350. I want at least 400 even but its probably not a good idea to trust a day old account is it?
Should i go with skylake i5 or i7? I have the money but I want to know which one is the best.

I need your help /g/. Recently bought a last gen AMD GPU for around 70$ bucks, installed the Crimson Drivers on it but the goddamn clock speed goes shows 1000mhz but runs only at 400mhz in games as monitored by GPU-Z.
AMD still shows it as 1000mhz and if I try to OC it a little bit, it fucking crashes. Tried turning off power efficiency and added 5% to power consumption. What the fuck is going guys? Is AMD really shitty with their fucking drivers.

https://askubuntu.com/questions/168156/how-to-use-a-real-partition-with-windows-7-installed-in-a-virtualbox-vm
seems possible
i can't tell if my psu is dying , or if my cpu is dead.
after years of abuse my 8320 couldn't hold stock clocks and the "optimized defaults" in bios set the vcore at like 1.45 and like i said it couldnt hold stock clocks it was at 3.3 ghz max when the base clock should be 3.5 while being hot as SHIT with a high end noctua cooler that is installed properly. i was getting weird glitches like video glitches nonrelated to the gpu which i also know is functional , and hdds that i know were functional were disappearing from device manager, and the bios would occasionally freeze which is not a good sign. Now the computer doesn't even post if i use the 8320 , but i threw in a athlon x2 550 and everything works PERFECTlY . the drives were all being seen, no glitching.
I can't tell if my psu can power the athlon because it's a shitty little dual core but not the octocore because muh tdp.
psu testers are useless because they don't test under load .
any ideas
>>55452797
run furmark benchmark , it will also show your core clock while running the benchmark.
it will max your core clock , if it doesn't there is a problem . some games won't raise the clock much .

Ideally I'd like it to be able to hold 2 hdds and like an msata ssd, and ivy bridge is preferred, but sandy is fine if I can replace the dvd drive with a hard drive.
I want a device that I can use as a VM host for everything I'd want to run, and I want a laptop for the reduced power consumption and built in UPS

There is a developer option in firefox to take fullscreen screenshots of a webpage. screenshot --fullpage
What happens though is that if the page is too long, it will either not work, or leave the bottom parts blank.
Does anyone know why this happens? What influences firefox to take a partial screenshot? From what I can tell there is no hard limit, sometimes it works better than others.
>>55453314
Works fine for me, even on huge pages.

Nah, ran it. The clock was set to 1000mhz by default, after like 30 seconds in went to 400mhz and destroyed the frame rate. Couldn't increase the clock at this point, had to restart for it to go back to 1000mhz.

Do a fresh install. Download the media creation tool from MS and make a bootable USB (or CD if you live in 2003) with Windows 10 on it. It downloads the W10 software automatically. If you have never done it, do not worry for a second, it is made fucking idiot proof. (So much that it frustrated semi-advanced users.) Grandma could install it.

ntsa but sure they do. Ports start to fail, you get intermittent blue screens, RAID performance drops.... ALL components age and then ultimately fail.

Question guys:
What's better, Bluetooth mice/keyboards or Wireless (USB dongle) mice/keyboards?
With bluetooth I can use them with my phone if I need, and a tablet if I ever get one. But I've read that USB ones are more responsive and reliable.
What should I get?
>>55456639
>bluetooth
supports more devices, faster switching between devices
>dongle (radio frequency)
more reliable, a lot less battery use, only works on devices with usb ports and driver support
Im gonna ask again just in case. Is there no way to connect vga monitor to this motherboard without an active converter? It isnt even available in my country, nor is dvi-d to vga.
Do any of you gnu-males know how to watch HBO go on an arch system?
>>55456704
Okay, how about a USB wireless mouse, but Bluetooth keyboard?
Pros:
- You don't need an extra mouse to set up both devices with e.g. a Raspberry Pi. The USB mouse will be plug and play, which you can then use to pair the Bluetooth keyboard.
- Bluetooth is more important for the keyboard than the mouse, since I want bluetooth for using with my iPhone or an Android tablet. A mouse for these devices is superfluous, but a keyboard is very useful for long typing.
Best combination?
>>55456860
DVI-D is a digital signal (like HDMI), whereas VGA is an analog signal, so yes, you need an active (powered) converter.
It's usually a little box that plugs into the mains (or USB) for power. If it isn't a box, it won't work. It needs power to actively convert the signal from digital to analog. So something like pic related will not work.
The alternative is to plug in a graphics card that has VGA output. But does that motherboard have PCI slots? Looks like it might not.

How can i fix this?
>>55457100
I can find them on Amazon UK. Maybe if you can't find them on your country's Amazon, you could get one imported?
Also look at pic related - a basic graphics card with VGA output is not that much more expensive. So I guess it's up to you which you think is the better buy.
>>55457218
Ah right well I was planning on budget buys, e.g. an £8 mouse rather than a £80 mouse, so I think an RF mouse and a Bluetooth keyboard should work, and together they'll be £20. Thank you for the advice though.

Stupider question here.
I have a 280x. It has a few years of usage but I haven't been pretty rough on it, it's going pretty good.
So right now, new GPUs are coming out, there's the 1060, the 480, and I was wondering if it'd be a good idea to jump into that, but then I realised I don't even play videogames anymore. Just the usual stuff that doesn't require a decent PC.

Can anyone suggest a metric/imperial converter in the form of an addon/extension for Firefox?

Even better if there is a converter that has a drop-down menu via an addon icon with various conversion fields where i can just copy paste or enter numbers and it does shit automatically.
Thanks in advance.

I'm assuming this is to do with there being no SSL set up, but I've googled for hours and have no way to really verify if that's the problem.
Do I need a new CPU cooler for an i5-6500? From what I've heard the stock cooler is good enough since I'm not planning to overclock.
My case has six internal fans, if that helps.

DVI-I (and DVI-A) have pins for VGA
his is DVI-D, which does not have the VGA pins, and is digital-only
>>55456860
yes, connectors that do not have the four pins around the horizontal slot do NOT output VGA, and so an active convertor is required to connect to a VGA monitor
you're solutions are;
- a motherboard with VGA/DVI-I/DVI-A output (the latter two only need the cheap little pin-adapters as people are showing)
- a graphics card with the above connectors
- a monitor with DVI-I/DVI-D/HDMI input (hdmi > dvi-d also only needs a cheap adapter)
- an active DVI-D > VGA convertor

In C, how do I make scanf accept n number of inputs?
For example, if I wanted it to accept 5 integers, I would simply write
scanf("%d %d %d %d %d", &a, &b, &c, &d, &e);
The idea is, for an array of size n, I should be able to make scanf accept n numbers of input, all to be deposited into the array.
Tried in the Headphones thread, but also going to try here for better results, since nobody actually answered me there.
After using cheap chinese wired earbuds all my life, i fed up with them lasting so little before they start malfunctioning, save for some cases where it lasted 2 months or a bit more.
Since i tend to walk around a lot and i've also been jogging for a month or two, i've decided to go with a wireless pair of earbuds, maybe that way it won't malfunction so easily due to the cable moving all the time, and due to my REAL tight budget, i've been looking at this:

Does Windows 10 sometimes block monitors or something? I have a Win 10 laptop that will connect to one of my TV's, but only via the receiver, and none of the others nor any computer monitors I have.
I've tried multiple cables, and one of the monitors it fails to connect to is less than a year old, as is the computer itself. I can think of no reason why it shouldn't work, and it connects without issue to all the monitors they had in the store when we took it back.

Like...? Like i said, i move around a lot, and since plenty of the malfunctioning happened during walks, i assumed that it was because my pants fuck with the ports during each step.
Also, almost all of the 1-2 star reviews talk about how it doesn't stay in place, and some say that the sound quality is bad; not that it's cheap breakable crap, and if i used chinese all my life, i'm sure the sound quality won't get worse.

I'm just saying that sound quality has a minimum price, and the lack of audio quality is usually what people mean by cheap chinese, not durability.

Pkg is telling me that Php56-curl is installed. And up to date.
However looking at my php.info page I've just generated, it doesn't have any other info aside from 'module author'.
Curl isn't mentioned at all anywhere on the page.

Any major problems with this i3 gaming build? Putting it together for a friend who is finally upgrading his 2008-era gaming PC. He's going to use his old graphics card for now and buy something new a little further down the line.
My two big questions are:
>Is the i5-6500 worth the extra $100 over the i3-6100 (for the majority of games?) ?
>Is a micro-ATX motherboard okay to use in a normal case?
My buddy basically wants a "build and forget" system (i.e. no overclocking or frequent hardware upgrade/tinkering). Since he won't be changing motherboards for a while, I'm wondering if I should push him to spring for the i5 in order to be more future-proof.
On a somewhat related note, I can't think of a single reason to go with an AMD processor. Their cheap 6-core gets beat by the skylake i3 even in multi-threaded applications.
>>55460495

Poorfag here.
Can someone clarify why would average pc gamers would want to spend $500+ on a PC build? Besides the luxury and bragging rights, I really don't get it. Do they really notice the difference between a $320 build and a $500+ build or is it the placebo effect at work?
Pic related. Building a cheap gaming PC. I already have a GTX 650 Ti Boost so I thought of going an APU + GPU combo but then the benchmarks comparing a Celeron G1840 to other APUs showed that the G1840 is just way above them in most aspects.
>>55460663
Any larger case should be able to use a smaller mobo, generally speaking, but there's no point in getting a bigger case unless you're actually going to fill it. I would say yes, it is worth going for the i5. CPUs and mobos stay competitive for much longer than they used to, so shelling out a bit more now is a good investment. What card is he planning on using? He might actually be better off with the igpu
>>55460663
>no graphics card
>i3 for gaming
>not even Bronze-certified PSU
>Thermalkek
Just go for a Haswell/Skylake Pentium. The G3258 and G4400 are good enough for gaming. I doubt he'll need a new HDD so just buy a 500GB one and then spend the rest on an SSD where actual improvements can be noticed. Also, EVGA can be a hit a miss if it's not Bronze certified PSU and you could get a much cheaper case instead of that Thermalkek one.
Since you're also in Canada, check DirectCanada.

Balloon tooltip notifications like pic related don't show up anymore on my computer in Windows 10. Haven't changed a thing in settings either.

Any last minute thoughts before I pull the trigger on my first build? I have no plans for overclocking, and I'm looking to game a 60fps in 1440p on high settings. I've never been more ready to blow $1200 in my life.
>>55460901
Newfag/bait detected.
Forgot to mention that I'm only mostly playing Civ5/Civ6, Victoria 2, Dota 2, and maybe Overkek.
Also, I can always buy another 4GB if I want to. I'm gonna see the limitations of my build first instead of shelling out dosh for nothing.

I believe they're found in Notifications now.
What is the point of having root / and /home on different partitions and not on one big partition?
>>55460941
Well it's not derpy like most of the builds we see on here. You do realize that in order to game at 1440p, you actually need a 1440p monitor, right?
I have Fedora 24 installed and am using the Numix Circle icons, but for some reason the icons in my file manager remain unchanged. My wireless, sound, and battery icons in the top panel remain unchanged as well. Did I miss something? These icons should've changed, right? It's not really important but it would be nice if I could get these icons changed to be consistent with Numix Circle.
>>55460941
you might consider getting the DDR4 version of that motherboard because the price difference is pretty small.
>>55461089
If for whatever reason you need to reinstall your OS or something happens that makes the data in the root partition hard or impossible to recover, your home, where most of your personal configs and program data is, is not lost. Basically, if you reinstall your OS, all your settings/browser history/whatever media you keep in your home directory will be preserved.
>>55461103
Oh shit. What an oversight. I'll go back and fix that. I'm glad that's the only thing that stands out as weird considering all the research I've been doing.
>>55461122
Lemme go check it out. The only benefits would be the ability to use DDR4 memory in the future, right? Do I have to use DDR4 memory if I do upgrade?

Thanks for enlightening me
>>55461169
If DDR4 is all the board supports, yeah.
Last time I checked the prices they weren't that bad. Look into it, and remember that you're going to use the build for a couple years at least.
